Senator Tim Kaine recently reintroduced the Fair Housing Improvement Act of 2019 to protect veterans and low-income families from housing discrimination. This bill would expand the Fair Housing Act’s protections to prohibit housing discrimination based on source of income or veteran status. HUD provides vouchers to low-income households and veterans through the Section 8 program and HUD-Veteran Affairs Supportive Housing program, respectively, yet private landlords are able to reject these vouchers.
